Edward Norton or Brad Pitt for me...Pitt only because he happens to be in most of my favorite movies. I'm also a pretty big Bruce Willis fan. As for actresses - meh, really no preference.

will smith!?!?! anyway, i would say jimmy stewart (he was in rear window for the ignorant ones) or peter sellers, he was great in the pink panther movies and DR STRANGELOVE. for current it would probably be denzel washington...i also like jack nicholson a lot in one flew over the cuckoo's nest....ugh so many to choose from...

Peter Sellers, now there's a great choice. And I prefer Cary Grant to Jimmy Stewart.

Just saw Million Dollar Baby, and I must say, it was needlessly depressing. It was all fine and dandy until the last 45 minutes...sheesh.

Ok, I'm a little forgiving at times with movies. I was ready to give Cellular an "ehh" rating. Probably

, but with more of a reason. But that has changed now.

I also saw Employee of the Month and was ready to give it a

, but that's in question now too. It's been so long since I've seen a really good movie, I've forgotten what it's like to truly enjoy one.

That said, Rabbit-Proof Fence, which I saw tonight is absolutly a gem. I can't say enough about how good it is. It is why movies are great.

Yes, now in comparison, EOM and Cellular SUCK as do most Hollywood movies. Rabbit-Proof Fence.

See it.

PS, it's based on a true story which makes it all the more interesting.

Isn't Rabbit Proof Fence an Australian movie?

Also, since Jet Li is the man, and the professional was kickass, this will be an awesome movie: http://www.apple.com/trailers/focus_...ashed-tlr.html

Yeah, it's Australian. It's up there with Galipoli (sp) for me as far as Australian films go. Really good.

I just saw Li in Hero. That was quite good too.

RedSoxRooter · 03-22-2005, 09:55 PM

I saw Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.

F-n GREAT. A tad slow towards the ending, but looks awesome.
How can you not like a film noir/sci-fi/action/WW2ish/mad scientist movie???

Gwyneth Paltrow has officially gone from sorta cute to smoking hot. The whole movie was shot on blue screen, which makes it all the more impressive that the special effects were not overblown.

Watch the extras.

I think it had a pretty cool twist at the end, and was overall pretty good. Got it on netflix a couple weeks ago.

It's a crying shame that there weren't any sequels to Pee Wee's Big Adventure.

Little Nicky was pretty hilarious. The metalhead dudes reminded me too much of a few guys I actually knew back in the day.

But there was.
I don't think Big Top Pee Wee was done by Tim Burton though...

Sin City opens today, anyone going to see it?

**yeszir** · 04-16-2005, 02:26 PM

I just saw this movie "Hard Boiled", directed by John Woo, and it was crazy. Extremely short on plot and crummy in the dialogue department (not to mention the fact that it's in Chinese), but the action is incredible. Thousands of people get shot in this movie, I recommend it for the cool gunplay.

I've seen it three times since it has opened. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
